At least 80 char works everywhere, and too long lines are just much harder to read. Shorter lines are better and much more readiable than long lines. So, 80 is my choice.

What I want is a source code repository system that is smart enough to just plain not bother with changes that have no effect at all on the Abstract Syntax Tree representation of the code.

The alternative, losing over half my screen because one person on the team is using 80-column vi, really sucks. I would like to see IDE’s being smarter about how they wrap code.
